The Newark Day Center, founded in 1803 as the Newark Female Charitable
Society, is a multifaceted, innovative, pace-setting community agency
serving children, youth, adults and seniors.

The agency has a rich history. Many of the social service agencies in
existence today, including the United Way of Essex and West Hudson, the
American Red Cross of Newark, the Newark Boys and Girls Scouts, the
Conference of Jewish Charities, the Salvation Army and Newark Beth
Israel, St. Barnabas and Presbyterian Hospitals, had their origins at
Newark Day Center.

As the oldest volunteer social service agency in New
Jersey and the third oldest in the nation, the Center stands as a beacon
of stability to the community.

The Newark Youth Leadership ProjectThe major focus of Greater Newark Conservancy's Job Training Program is the Newark Youth Leadership Project (NYLP).
The NYLP is a year round job and leadership training program which
provides Newark, NJ high school and college youth with job training
experience, leadership development, and exposure to different career
options in environmental and horticultural fields and opportunities for
pursuing a college education.

In addition, job training interns are given the chance to participate in
outdoor horticultural activities that they would probably never
experience otherwise. Through this program the Conservancy seeks to
improve conditions in the urban community by increasing employability
and earning potential. The year round NYLP has now been in operation for
over ten years and has had hundreds Newark youth participants.

Act Now, Together we can bring Peace to this Crazy World.
Blessed are the Peacemakers for they shall be called the Children of God.
I often use music in my blog, because music is universal. It says what I would like to say, although these great talents say it much more eloquently than I could.
I Love good people. I've met all kinds and I think that people are all the same. There are good ones and not so good ones, etc. But, the good ones far outnumber the bad ones.
